We woke up to 8 inches of snow Feb 4th and single digit temperatures. Then on the 10th we woke up to find another 4 inches had piled on top! The snow was super dry, just like powder, so it was light and fluffy to just sweep away but unfortunately did not make a good snowman:( Yesterday it finally was warm enough to start melting the snow so we made a snowman about as tall as Beau. It probably didn't last 5 minutes, someone felt the need to knock it down.....BEAU! Anyway, it was so warm today most of the snow is gone. It was so cold most of the days, we only played for a few minutes outside, but we still got to enjoy it! We even got to use our sled! Jason tied a rope to the sled and pulled Beau up and down our street. Then when he got tired, Mallie got to do it:) It was so funny! By the time I tried to video it Beau was diving off the sled just for fun!

 

 

Ninja Turtles, Spider Man, Skylanders, Batman, Super Man, super heros, etc...... all things Beau has NOT gotten into. Cars, Planes, tools..... oh ya, LOVES them! As I have mentioned before, Beau has really gotten into planes. RC planes to be exact. Every time we go back to Pratt, if the weather cooperates, we are out at the airport flying RC planes. Last time we were in Pratt there were several guys out flying and 4 planes were in the air at the same time. Beau just eats it up. He knows more about all those planes than I do. For some reason, this "rainbow biplane" he calls it, caught his eye and he has been talking about it ever since. Telling Jason he wants to get it for him for his birthday, or "when I get big I am going to buy the rainbow biplane." Jason's birthday is this weekend and his parents came up last weekend to celebrate. They bought him the "rainbow biplane". Oh man, talk about one excited little boy! He was sooooo excited. Now everyday he keeps asking when it will be ready to fly. The plane came as an "almost ready to fly" version, so several things must be put together and it will take awhile for Jason to get it complete. But all of this plane obsession has caused me to want to update his room to a Vintage plane theme so it will grow with him. So that's next on my to do list:)

 

 Home Depot has a free kids building day once a month. This month was a car. It was actually the first time we had ever been. It was so neat. They give you a kit and you have to put it together, hammering nails in and all! Then Beau got to race it down the ramp. He sure had fun. Unfortunately it didn't even survive the day, he broke a wheel within a couple hours of being home:(

 One of the guys that fly's a lot gave this plane to Beau last time we went out.

 He loved it!
